Sangobeag - a cottage that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

An extended and modernised former crofter's 'butt an ben' in a spectacular position overlooking a white sandy beach with the Orkney Islands visible on a good day. This remote corner of Scotland is renowned for its dramatic scenery, rare flora and fauna, bird watching, game fishing and hill walking. Immediate local recreational pursuits available include golf (1 hole is across the Atlantic), cave exploration, visiting the Cape Wrath lighthouse, the most northerly point of mainland Scotland, salmon & sea trout fishing, stalking and not least the nationally renowned wild brown trout in the five lochs around Durness. Located about a mile from the cottage Durness enjoys 24 hour fuel and a shop 6 days a week.

Perfect Location

Beautiful location, sunrises & views were breathtaking. Lucky enough to watch a dolphin & calf playing in the bay one day as well as lots of sea birds including the Gannets diving for their catch. Could be absolutely perfect but was slightly let down by cleanliness of the property & no double bed in any of the bedrooms. Despite that would definitely recommend & would stay again if holidaying in the area.

Liked: Check-in, location
The location of the house is great and the view of the bay is simply magical, especially in the sunshine.However, the cleanliness left something to be desired.In addition, some repairs were needed. There were windows that should not be opened. In the upstairs bedroom (the one with the shower), there was no hot water during the entire stay. At the end of the stay, the window in this bedroom no longer closed properly.

Excellent view and house

House was super, I came with a disabled child, and access was fine for us, as patio doors at kitchen, if bed in bottom bedroom was not a divan, would be ideal for a hoist user. Key holder at door very fiddly to get into, if you have sore fingers or elderly. N outside light at other end of house would be great for winter. Views are out of this world, got to visit relations locally and did zip wire and Smoo Cave. The beach is beautiful to be on and listen to at night, stunning with the moon out full. Would stay again for sure.
